Duvets
Size
The range includes tog-rated options like the Flair 10.5 tog with pillow set, bamboo filled choices for breathability, and reversible designs for flexibility across seasons. Shoppers can select from single to super king sizes with various fillings suited to temperature regulation and everyday use.
Selecting Warmth Levels and Fillings
Understanding Tog Ratings
Tog ratings indicate the warmth level provided, with lower numbers suited to summer and higher values better for colder months. Many ranges offer 4.5 tog for lighter nights, 10.5 or 13.5 tog for winter, and all-season pairs that combine two layers. Matching the rating to room temperature and personal preference helps maintain consistent comfort without overheating.
Filling Types and Care
Common fillings include microfibre for easy maintenance, natural bamboo for moisture wicking, and down alternatives for softness. Synthetic options often suit those seeking hypoallergenic properties while natural materials may appeal for breathability. Regular airing and following wash instructions on the label helps maintain loft and hygiene over time.
Pairing with Covers and Protectors
Layering a duvet with a suitable cover allows easy changes for style or season while a protector guards against spills and allergens. Cotton or polycotton covers work well with most fillings, and reversible designs add versatility. Choosing the correct size ensures the cover fits neatly without restricting the fill.
Frequently Asked Questions
What tog duvet do I need?
Lower tog values suit warmer rooms or summer use while higher ratings provide more insulation for winter. All-season combinations let you adjust by adding or removing a layer depending on the weather.
Duvet vs comforter what's the difference?
A duvet is typically a filled insert used with a removable cover, whereas a comforter is usually a finished quilted piece. The cover system allows easier cleaning and seasonal swaps.
How often should you wash a duvet?
Check the care label for specific guidance, though many synthetic fills tolerate machine washing every few months. Airing regularly between washes helps keep the item fresh.
What size duvet for a king bed?
A king size bed generally pairs with a king duvet, though some prefer a larger size for extra drape. Measure your bed and check product dimensions to ensure adequate coverage.
